Just found this on the net. Its Rome, but you get the idea:
"More than 230 people died in accidents in 2006 in the Italian capital, where motorists thunder down narrow cobbled alleyways, swerve around pedestrians on zebra crossings and disregard road signs. There were 21,000 collisions in which 28,000 people were injured, according to the Road Safety Insurance Foundation.
Kamikaze driving and traffic congestion are among the drawbacks of living in a city whose motorists, according to Bill Bryson, "park their cars the way I would park if I had just spilled a beaker of hydrochloric acid in my lap." "
Ha, ha, hydrochloric acid!
